Visit Honningsvag, the North Cape town, or one of the lively fishing villages such as Repvag on the Mainland, Nordvagen, Kamoyvaer, Gjesvaer or Skarsvag on Mageroya island. The name Mageroya is derived from the Sami name Makkaravju, which means thin island, due to its location. The municipality lies around 150 km north of the timber line and has an open, spectacular landscape. North Cape is one of Norway’s most popular destinations. Welcome to a wonderful adventure, where you will experience the true diversity of this area and enjoy activities in harmony with the sea, our nature and culture.

The center was great. Had lots of outside viewing areas as well as different options inside. Could see a movie presentation of the area as well as eat or drink at the restaurant or purchase just about any type of souvenir possible relating to Norway or North Cape. Even a certificate of North Cape 71 degrees north.

The only original remaining structure to survive the devastating fire that burned down the town during the German occupation. Well cared for and collecting for a new organ. Atmospheric and peaceful.

We took an ATV tour arranged through our cruise ship and it now is the high spot of our trip. We had a rare, relatively warm day under nearly cloudless skies which made the experience even better. Our guide was great; he managed to get a collection of 20 mostly senior citizens suited up and underway in short order. He led us up to the top of a nearby mountain from which we had a great view of Honningsvåg. The drive was a relatively easy one, even if you have no ATVing experience. As an extra plus we even got a great view of a group of reindeer. I'd love to go back and go snowmobiling with him.

ARTICO ICE BAR es una experiencia unica. No somos una atraccion turistica ni un lugar fresquito para tomar algo o uno de esos locales hechos con hielo de congelador en lugares impensables de Europa.MOSTRAMOS EL HIELO DEL ARTICO EN EL ARTICO. En primavera -verano, cuando no hay nieve ni hielo en el paisaje, le mostramos lo que la naturaleza ha hecho durante los frios meses de invierno. Trozos de los lagos helados de Laponia , nieve de sus montanas , la sensacion del frio inviernal y la noche polar en pleno estio. El conocimiento de la naturaleza a traves del hielo en estado puro. Podra observar el hielo natural, tocarlo y sentirlo plenamente. Porque tocar es sentir.ARTICO ICE BAR BAR is a unique experience. We are neither a tourist attraction nor a nippy place to have a break or one of those business made with freezer ice in unthinkable places in Europe.WE SHOW ARCTIC ICE IN THE ARCTIC. In spring-summer, when there is neither snow nor ice in the landscape, we show you what nature has made during the cold months of winter. Pieces of the frozen lakes of Sapmi, snow from its Mountains, the feeling of winter cold and the polar night in summer. You will see the knowledge of nature through ice in pure state. You will be able to fully watch natural ice, touch it and feel it. Because touching is feeling.
We visited the Artico Bar in the late afternoon. We thought it was really a fun experience, and had 2 drinks ( included in the fee). The fact of not being able to have an alcoholic drink didn't disturb as the drinks were really tasty. Service was very friendly.

We booked this bus tour to North Cape on arriving in Honningsvag, Norway by cruise ship. It was by far one of the very best yours we have ever taken. Our guide, Monica Dabkowska was delightful. She is from Poland originally but lives and works in Norway and is extremely knowledgable about the area. She was friendly, funny and enthusiastic as she informed us all along the way from Honningsvag to North Cape about the local area, the people and the customs. Don't miss this tour!!

This Saint Bernard and his owner, a ship captain, began life as civilians and ended it as sailors for the Norwegian Forces. The dog had his own bus pass so that, when he went to town from the ship to round up the crew before curfew, he could ride the bus (by himself). He knew where to find his mates! He also saved lives, conquered foes, stopped fights, and watched over the crew. Superior intelligence!
The statue is right in front of the Arctic Souvenir Shop. Cruise ships and tours stop here.

The gallery with artwork and handcrafts by a local artist Erica K.Haugli. The entrance of the gallery is appealing already. There are rainboots with flowers in them. I was told that the artist gathered boots thrown by somebody just on the road sides and used them for that project. Inside the gallery is filled with colours and joy, I would say. Collages, mosaics, jewellery, water colours, paintings, handicrafts. In the shop I saw imprints of the artists work sold as posters, post cards. But there are several original pieces for sale too. I left the gallery as an owner of one work of art.

Went to Honningsvag on a cruise and found the Tourist information center right at the end of the dock. This was helpful for a lot of people but I had booked a private fishing tour with Arctic Fishing & King Crab Adventures. Peter the owner met us on time at the information center and he was a great captain and an excellent fisherman! First we did about a 10 minute boat ride and stopped where we caught a bunch of Mackerel. We kept one and then went over to where he keeps a king crab trap. Peter pulled it up and we got to see the last one he had, and it was huge! He held it up and explained about the crab and how they live, and then we took some great pictures. I felt like I was doing “Deadliest Catch” but without all the rough seas! Next we went out into deeper waters, only about another 10min ride and we started catching 8-12lb Cod! He had the lines set with 2 lures and almost every time we brought them up we had two on the line. We couldn’t get the lines in fast enough! As soon as we dropped to the bottom, we were hauling up two fish. Let me tell you after hauling up 30-40 fish we had had enough! We did catch and release because I had been informed by the wait staff onboard that the chef would not prepare fish from the outside. In fact I also found out that I wouldn’t be allowed to bring it onboard. Oh well, it sue was fun catching them.
